It's one of the benefits of owning an Excalibur.

A mature doe can be one of the most challenging targets. Congrats on settling the score.

Although it was a bit warmer than we would have liked, both of my kids and I were all up trees this morning before daybreak for the last Saturday of our archery season. Things were relatively quiet until about forty minutes after sunset. This small 7pt buck that was new to us showed up on a trail ca...

Thieves suck! You were lucky with the outcome. As I passed someone painting graffiti in an inner city this week, I couldn't help but wonder if losing an index finger on the painting hand might cut down on the problem. Crimes that willfully disregard others property need a punishment that criminals w...

Very nice. Little Ugly is as mean as Corn Pop.

There's nothing that gives me a bigger smile than to silence a blowing doe. Congrats on the fine eating and excellent arrow placement.

Congrats to him. When used properly, a Rocket Hammerhead can leave a amazing blood trail. It was my go to broadhead out of an ExoMax.

I'd spend a lot more time in the stand if I knew that big boy was in the area. Good luck with him.

Having ran a beacon nock battery down after more than four lighted days in the woods, I had the opportunity today to attempt replacing the battery. I'm happy to report that replacing the battery was easier than it was on a Lumenok. Here are a couple photos of the beacon guts. You'll notice that the ...

I fired an arrow with a beacon nock on Monday morning and missed because I misjudged the distance. I saw the arrow bounce off of the rocky terrain and disappear down through the woods. I didn't find my arrow in what limited time I got to search for it. This evening while I was walking out from hunti...

Congrats on the big ole doe.

Congrats on a nice one. His neck is all swollen up for early October in TX. Not all deer follow the same schedule.

Wow, that's a lot of meat for a freezer and a lot of work to make it happen. Congrats on the moose double. It doesn't surprise me that a Micro 400 with the right arrows and a sharp broadhead can have a crazy amount of penetration.

Amazing photos! I'm envious that you're already seeing color. We've got above normal temps and our trees show no signs of the changing season yet. But cooler weather is supposed to arrive this weekend. Here are a couple photos from the killing tree last Saturday. https://onedrive.live.com/embed?resi...

Nikon makes a compact aculon series its camo for like 79 dollars l like mine they perform like something way more expensive.

x 2.
That's exactly what I carry. The Nikon Aculon A30. Its 10x25 and I prefer something nice and small for my pack. For the cost, it's hard to beat.

My father told me to keep a diary of my successful hunting and fishing days. I actually did but life got to buisy and l ceased being an author. Now at this time in life l really wish I did my mind dosnt remember every date and detail as before. Most of all l wish l had the dates. Once I started hun...
